TRUSTe, the leading online privacy seal and trust assurance service, announced that AchooAllergy.com, one of the
most visited websites for allergy relief products and allergy relief information, is using TRUSTe’s newly-launched small
business services to enhance online consumer trust and increase sales conversions. As a result of displaying the TRUSTe
Trustmark, AchooAllergy.com achieved a $10 increase in its average order value.
AchooAllergy.com is a specialty online retailer of allergy, asthma, and sinus relief products. AchooAllergy.com differentiates itself by
offering superior customer service and providing comprehensive information and resources on allergies and allergic diseases. The company’s
challenge is not only to attract online customers, but also to maximize the dollar sales amount on every visit.
“The increase in consumer trust in our site and the increase in average order volume can be directly attributed to our adding the TRUSTe
seal to the order section of our Web site,” said Cade McDonald, CEO of AchooAllergy.com. “The company’s online sales continue to grow and
customers are confident that AchooAllergy.com will safeguard their personal and financial information.”
The company’s original Web site launched in 2000. As part of a site rebranding and test program, AchooAllergy.com displayed the TRUSTe
seal in the header of every page of its site and conducted an A/B test using TRUSTe’s free trial program. TRUSTe’s testing partner, Amadesa,
measured the results. Amadesa’s testing allows merchants to 1) measure the dollar increase in sales and average order value from sites
displaying the TRUSTe seal, and 2) confirm that increases in visitor purchasing are statistically relevant.
“Our Trusted Site Services are showing incredible conversion rates for small business retailers,” said Fran Maier, CEO of TRUSTe. “Over
the past decade, consumers have come to know and trust the TRUSTe seal on large merchant Web sites, and this new data proves that small
businesses are seeing the same success and enhanced consumer trust.”
